So what you're saying is that in spite of the fact that the community
has identified a bug that it wants to fix, a bug which was added by the
team maintaining bsd.gnome.mk, that you are refusing to modify your
patch to handle the bug; but instead are demanding your right to
reintroduce the bug, and then further demanding the right to not fix it
after the patch is in? And furthermore, you're refusing to even look at
the other dependencies which are handled by bsd.gnome.mk to see if
similar bugs were introduced *by your team*, but you're happy to let
everyone else sort out the problems in thousands of ports for you.

And you want me to respect that?
